Menu Plan Monday February 18, 2013

Hi all!  Well I survived Little A's birthday party weekend...barely :)  It was a whirlwind, but the kids all had an amazing time.  It was so much fun to see them all running around the gymnastics gym (here's a great shot of my fearless little man!)

Then we all sat down to some delicious pizza (I can not say thank you enough to Nick and Bruno's Pizza for the exceptional pizza and customer service) and of course the cake!

I searched everywhere for a Transformers Rescue Bots cake, but they don't sell them anywhere so we went with the mask and Little A was thrilled!


Thanks for indulging me and my gushing over the party :)  Now on to this week's meal plan!
*NOTE: I am entering this week's meal plan in a contest on Shrinking Kitchen, so feel free to check out the board on my Pinterest page and to check out the Shrinking Kitchen site, they are awesome!

 Monday: Weight Watchers Baked Ziti (7P+)

Tuesday: Cheeseburger Cheese Tacos at the request of the birthday boy!!  I am not including points for these because it is my little man's birthday and I will eat what he requests and exercise a bit more :)

Wednesday: Skinnytaste Mac and Cheese (7P+)

Thursday: Slow Cooker Honey Sauced Chicken (6P+)

Friday: Quinoa Bake with spinach and mushrooms (4P+) and Balsamic Brussels Sprouts with cranberries and pecans (2P+)

Saturday: Meyer Lemon Chicken (lightened up) (7P+)

Sunday: Mediterranean Veggie Pitas (points vary depending on ingredients) *note: left out the feta and added humus due to taste preference

Breakfast: Slow Cooker Chocolate Oats (4-5P+ depending on toppings)

Lunch: Hearty Vegetable Soup (3P+ *note: I left out the pasta to lower the points)

Dessert/Snack: Best Ever Banana Bread  (great way to use up the bananas that are too soft to eat!), Sesame Kale Chips - my new obsession!! (2P+),

Kid Friendly Korner: Cheeseburger Cheese Tacos (this week's kid friendly recipe is Tuesday night's dinner because that is the birthday boys actual birthday and he gets to pick dinner)

Happy Eating! :)
